Moo0 Right Clicker Powers up Your Context Menu
by Lee Mathews Sep 30th 2008 at 9:00AM
Moo0's Right Clicker makes several welcome additions to the default options. I particularly like the folder bookmarking feature, which makes it a snap to navigate between folders in any explorer view. Couple it with the copy to and move to features, and managing files and folders in Explorer is much simpler.
It also adds a "go up" option to the menu - much quicker than mousing up to the Explorer toolbar - and the ability to copy a file's name or full path to the clipboard. Right Clicker's duplicate feature will spawn a new window with the current location (even from a file dialog). I find this particularly useful when I'm uploading or editing something and notice some file system untidiness that needs to be addressed immediately.
Right Clicker is available in free and paid versions, and my only real gripe is that the advanced options are all visible but grayed out. You know, just to remind us what we're missing out on. Still, it provides a nice set of functions that context menu aficionados are sure to welcome.
I don't know if this is a labor of love or merely the brainchild of four very gifted games designers, but Level Up is a really weird mash-up of gaming elements that you have probably never seen in a Flash game before.
Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening.

Do you know about the right-click and drag feature of Explorer's Context Sensitive Menu or alternatively hold down Ctrl and left-drag?

Agh! I never thought of that. i have only used that in the past when copying a file to a new folder. After reading your post I can't believe I never thought of that. Just hold CTRL and drag the file 1/4 of an inch and I have a copy. Damn. Thanks!! =)

No x64 support = a large barrel of fail.
